Re: call for a vote -- I vote for "Reply to list".
(forgive "top post", it seems logical here)
I feel I have learned more about Linux in three months on this list, then from books over 5 years.
I hate to think of how much I didn't learn because the reply went to sender only.
I hope the list maintainers will reconsider and try "reply to list" as the standard.
I vote for "Reply to list".
thanks,
Fred OGrady

I am tired of replying to messages on this list, only to realize that my reply
went to the message author and not to the list. It is my understanding that the
people in charge of this list think that his behavior is a feature, not a bug.
I disagree.
I acknowledge that this issue can be argued back and forth indefinitely, and
will never be unanimously decided. Therefore, I call for a simple majority vote
to decide the matter, with a cutoff for voting of 72 hours from the time this
message is posted.
I vote for "Reply to list".

p.s. I searched the mailing list archives for "vote reply" and "vote
replies" during the past year with results of "No matches".
